My friend has a cattle farm in Victoria, and he’s recently encountered an unusual request. A group from a specific cultural background has been visiting, asking if they could acquire cow dung—not for manure, but for ceremonial purposes, such as blessings and rituals.

Have any other cattle owners had similar experiences?

My friend politely declined, finding the request a bit odd for his taste.

One thought on “Mate has a farm with cattle in Vic he recently has had some interesting request”

  1. It’s interesting how cultural practices can lead to unique requests like that! While it may seem unusual to some, many cultures have traditional uses for animal byproducts that can be deeply meaningful.

    I’ve heard of similar situations where farmers have been approached for specific items related to cultural rituals or practices. Some cattle owners might find it a bit strange at first, but it’s always good to approach these requests with an open mind and understanding of their significance.

    If your mate isn’t comfortable with it, that’s completely understandable. He has the right to decide what he feels is appropriate for his farm. It might be worth considering having a discussion with them to learn more about their practices, though—sometimes these conversations can lead to surprising insights!
